Code of Conduct

Terms of Use

These are the terms of use that every member using interactive areas of this site agrees to adhere to. This would include article threads and other interactive areas such as multimedia and contests.

Communicating within articles or on message boards is different from face-to-face communication. Only the words are seen, not your facial expressions or tone of voice. Please pay careful attention to how you use your words.

Remember that the words you enter in a burst of passion or indignant anger will be there for you and everyone else to see, sometimes long after those intense feelings have passed. That's not meant to discourage spontaneity, but just a friendly reminder of the long-term existence and effects of what you post.

You may, from time to time, find yourself in disagreement with someone else's opinion. At times like these, please keep in mind it's safer and more polite to take issue with the comments rather than the person.

By using the Detroit Lions' service, you agree that you will not post any of the following material on article threads or other forums:

Any communication that is intended to harass, belittle, humiliate, threaten or cause embarrassment to a fellow member.

Material that contains vulgar, obscene or indecent language or images.

Any communication that contains spam (multiple copies in one area or the same communication in multiple areas).

Material that defames, abuses or threatens others.

Statements that are bigoted, hateful or racially offensive.

Material that advocates illegal activity or discusses illegal activities with the intent to commit them.

Unauthorized copyrighted material.

Advertising or any form of commercial solicitation.

Material that impedes or otherwise prohibits communication; disrupts the discussion including, without limitation, using fan names in topical boards that are offensive to the topic, the team, the sport and/or its fans, and repeatedly posting off-topic messages.

Statements or postings that violate the above terms will be deleted from postings upon discovery. While we may attempt to notify you if there are repeat offenses, we are under no obligation to do so. Depending on the nature of the violation, the Detroit Lions at their sole discretion may terminate a customer's account.
